Silent Cal's Almanack: The Homespun Wit And Wisdom Of Vermont's Calvin Coolidge

A treasury of the wit and wisdom of Calvin Coolidge, America's surprisingly eloquent 30th President.You may ask "Why Coolidge?" Everyone asks "Why Coolidge?" We are quite used it. Here is my sound-bite answer (or, at least, one of them): Every politician that comes down the pike, promises you four or five of the same things. He or she will cut taxes, reduce unemployment, spur growth, balance the budget, and suppress inflation. They all promise such things. They never do them--and we fall for it every time.Calvin Coolidge accomplished all of the above--and the historians say he was in office for five years and never did a damn thing. It's time to set the record straight. "Silent Cal's Almanack" includes: The ultimate distillation of Calvin Coolidge political wisdom.A selection of Silent Cal's key speeches.A thought-provoking original biographical essay.A fascinating and unique 50-page portfolio of Coolidge photos, editorial cartoons and campaign memorabilia.A Coolidge timeline.* A Coolidge bibliography."He wrote simply, innocently, artlessly," H. L. Mencken once noted regarding Coolidge's prose, "He forgot all the literary affectations and set down his ideas exactly as they came into his head. The result was a bald, but strangely appealing piece of writing-a composition of almost Lincolnian austerity and beauty. The true Vermonter was in every line of it." Supreme Court Justice David Souter recently wrote of Calvin Coolidge: "The simple beauty of his English prose exceeds anything I could say in praise of it." Featured on the Glenn Beck Show and C-SPAN's BookTV.

John Wesley and the Protestant Reformation / Juan Wesley y la reforma protestante: Between Luther and Calvin / Entre Lutero y Calvino
Gonz lez clarifies the nature and method of Wesley's theology, which Albert Outler famously christened the Quadrilateral, and he suggests that, while helpful, to be more descriptive of Wesley's intent and the spirit of the Reformation to Scripture, reason, tradition, and experience, we must add mission. While many might believe that the phrase "reformed but still reforming" has been co-opted by modern-day Calvinists, these words also ring true for Wesleyans. Looking to John Wesley, this book takes the long view of the relationship between the elements of the Quadrilateral and mission, thus finding new, common ground upon which theological liberals and conservatives might stand together. The book says that the addition of mission to the Quadrilateral can also help the church move beyond the bifurcation of social justice and holiness, and that the people called Methodists must hold on to both or risk the success of their witness, mission, and ministry.
